“Not All Sizes Fit the Same XXL, 1X, 2XL – What’s the Difference?”

XXL vs. 2XL • XXL (Extra Extra Large) • Typically part of standard sizing (S, M, L, XL, XXL). • Cut is usually for someone just above XL, but not necessarily in the plus-size range. • The proportions are closer to regular sizes, just extended (same torso length, slimmer shoulders/hips than plus-size). • 2XL (2 Extra Large) • Usually part of plus-size sizing (1X, 2X, 3X…). • Cut is more generous—especially in the bust, waist, hips, and arms. • Designed for fuller figures, not just bigger versions of straight sizes. Key Difference Even though both labels look like they mean the same, XXL ≠ 2XL: • XXL = straight-size extension. • 2XL = plus-size cut. 👉 Example: A woman who wears size 18 in straight sizing might fit an XXL, but a woman who wears size 18 in plus sizing would fit a 2XL/1X, because the body proportions differ.
